Is financial aid available?
Yes! The Archdiocese of Atlanta and St. John the Evangelist Catholic School offer several financial aid opportunities to qualifying families based upon documented need.
The application for admission and the application for financial aid are separate, but the processes run simultaneously.

The application for financial aid will be available online in early January and is due February 28th each year.
